Abstract
The Union government has declared that it will
implement the Citizenship amendment act, 2019 before the General election 2024
is announced and the growing number of Refugees entering India on account of
the ongoing crisis in Myanmar it’s imperative that the Union government do
something about the issue. The world is also seeing a growing military conflict
for political benefits like the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Palestine conflict
which is creating a serious immigrant crisis around the world and India which
is situated around the periphery of the conflicts ironically does not have any
policy on refugees and CAA, 2019 is one of the very few legislation that comes
close to telling us the thinking of the Indian Government on how it sees
immigrants and refugees that enter India. The article goes into detail in
explaining the rights and duties of foreigners, refugees and immigrants that
come to India. The article divided in four parts begins with
introducing the statutory framework regulating aliens and foreigners in India,
further the article delineates Refugee Protection in India through International
regulation namely the Refugee protection 1951, Indian constitutional protection
and case-laws. The article also points out the lacuna prevalent in the national
and international Statutory Protection for Refugees and immigrants and
concludes with a final analysis of the current situation and recommending a
viable solution of enacting a Refugee Policy in the country.
